Jet Lagged: Navigating the Unfriendly Skies

I often enjoy the pieces featured in the "Opinion" section of The New York Times. Particularly enjoyable was this funny piece on air travel. As far as I can see, the author has managed to perfectly nail it:

Also, you will find the SKYMALL CATALOG, from which you may order a product called "Poop Freeze,” described as a spray refrigerant that “chills animal waste to -62°F, creating an outer ‘crust’ that enables you to quickly place in a bag and dispose.” Feel free to spend the remainder of the flight trying to process this information.

I've also often wondered why such a big deal is made of keeping one's seatbelt securely fastened and of noting the location of the emergency floatation devices. My thoughts are always the same: if this plane goes down, it doesn't freaking matter.

Enjoy. I laughed out loud more than once.
